I don't mean to belittle the problem, but it's the same as when the
flexible part of my hearing aid (earbud) broke off in my ear canal - use
the proper tools and work *very* gently.
If the diameter was larger I would recommend a tool set used for screw
extraction but I don't think that you could find one for that size that
outside of a dental office. The suggestion of using a small drill bit
and pin vise sounds like a reasonable thing to try.
